I liked the decor
And the man that checked me in was courteous
Nicely updated rooms. The location couldn’t be better in Missoula. I think the owners name is Roy, he is as very friendly. There was a really cold night before my check-out. My locks froze in my truck so when I was getting ready to check-out I realized I couldn’t get in my truck. I had to go get some lock de-over which made me run late checking out. He was super understanding it was much appreciated. I’ll stay here again.
The staff was friendly. The room was clean and quiet. Parking was easy.

Double charged due to inexperienced staff. We weren’t sure if I’d paid thru Expedia, so he charged my credit card and said come back in the morning to sort it out. There was NO staff available in the morning, through noon! No way to call hotel…. VERY poor customer service.
I’m hoping I can sort this out before I have to make a claim on my credit card!
The heat in the room did not respond to turning up the thermostat resulting in a frigid nights sleep at 58 degrees in the room. The bed blanket was thin resulting in one of the guests sleeping in their coat. The black grout in the bathroom might have been unsealed as it stained the guests socks with black marks. Great location and appeared to be clean. Could have utilized a mirror in the main room. One guest had to put make up on in the car since the other guest was in the bathroom shower where the only mirror was. But the car mirror was a warm benefit.
